I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

4 and a half hours of drivel. While accurate on the timeline and events, the dialogue and acting in this made for TV turkey are hideous. And those beards!! Who did the make-up? Didn't anyone see how laughably awful they were. Watch something else. This is an over-long, over-boring soap opera that's DOA.

Although it is long, the movie builds up a lot of characters and gives background to the battle occuring around them. Good movie with great historical accuracy, recreation of battles were realistic.

In 1863, the Northern and Southern forces fight at Gettysburg in the decisive battle of the American Civil War.While this is truly a great film and one that probably got many people interested in history and the Civil War, it is also sort of strange in its forced portrayal of the events. Despite a massive budget, some of the beards look ridiculously fake. And the dialogue is often very unnatural, thrown in to make a point. The speech where it is shown that many Confederate soldiers were the grandchildren of Revolutionary War patriots is very interesting, but it is extremely unlikely that any such conversation happened. Why would a general even know who a soldier's great-uncle was? Anyway, if you can ignore the beards and the overly-clean uniforms, this is a pretty spectacular movie that goes out of its way to get an emotional response from people.

Gettysburg is one of my all time favorite's. Even though, I don't live in the United States, I really enjoy doing research on the history of the country. I also have a lot of respect for all those who fought and died. Both Union and Confederate alike. The movie does a great job in showing the emotions of the characters/ historical figures. In the American Civil War, a soldier regardless of rank, must have been always feeling mixed emotions and thoughts,like; Am I going to be killed in battle? Am I going to be wounded or captured? This movie shows it all. The music is beautiful and well suited to that time period. I encourage everyone who likes history or anyone who is just curious, to watch this awesome movie.
